Boom
So the hat looked more or less like this a little while ago.
Then came a quick little fit of knitting, and all of a sudden it looked like this.
It’s still due for a bit of a block, just to even things out and fluff it up a bit, but I’m rather taken with it.
I wanted the top to do something very specific (sort of gathered, not slouchy at all, but with just a bit of extra volume up there), and it totally did what I had in mind. The trick seemed to be doing all the decreases amazingly quickly, and it totally worked out.
The hat is gorgeous! Fingering weight yarn is a bit of a pain but it’s worth the work!
This is just beautiful. Please publish it soon.
Some time in the new year! I’ve already got January and February and March planned out, so it won’t be then. But it could be April or May!
I love the way it looks, I’m hoping you are planning to share it with us.
Looks great. I am glad it worked out!!?
Omit last ?
I love it; one more vote for a pattern soon, please!
P.S. Also make one terrific cowl…
Alas, not enough yarn to do a cowl. It does look like there should be mitts though!
Love it!
I’m not big on hats in general because it’s so warm here, well, and I have that sock addiction thing, but THIS. I dig it! : )
Gorgeous.could we have the pattern,please?
